Bird‑The‑Meal Extravaganza: A KFC Install‑ment Spicier than Your Breakfast
Got a craving for chicken? What if that craving turned into a FREE ticket and a chance to scoop up tasty prizes? That’s exactly what the fresh “Paper Birds” installation in the mall’s first‑level foyer is offering.
What’s on the Menu?
- Location: Level 1, right by the water fountain. It’s as easy to spot as a glass of water.
- Entry: Complimentary! You don’t need any mystery key or secret handshake.
- Early‑Bird Bonus: The first 4,500 visitors will snag a free two‑piece chicken voucher. It’s the perfect way to start your day (or end your day) with a side of crispy delight.
- Fun Dates: June 6–10. Mark your calendar because this only runs for those five days.
- Weekly Deals: In July’s celebratory mood, expect a weekly $4.5 KFC meal deal – a sweet nod to the brand’s 45th anniversary.
What to Expect Inside
Think of it as a mini food parade with a side of interactive art. The installation is filled with whimsical paper‑bird sculptures that double as an audience‑hopping dinosaur of flavors. As you wander, you’ll be surrounded by visual fun while the scent of fried chicken keeps you craving for more.
There’s a cinematic element too—if you tune in, a 3‑minute track titled Paper Birds (by Jordan Halpern Schwartz) sets the mood. It’s the perfect soundtrack for hopping from cone to tip of a paper feathered dragon.

Vote for your favourite KFC menu items
Step One: Hook It Up With the HBP Vacuum Wall
When you crack open the door to the pop‑up booth, the very first thing that greets you isn’t a buffet – it’s a string‑and‑knob extravaganza that feels like a museum of your favorite fast‑food cravings. Imagine walking into a playground where every snack type is a little turn‑the‑dial toy, and you get to play “Choose Your Own Menu.”
- Set the scene: Grab a colorful strand of string – trust me, it’s not your average yarn. It’s the key to unlocking a tastier adventure.
- Guidelines 101: Spoiler alert – the knobs represent chicken, burgers, sides & drinks. These aren’t mere buttons; they’re your personal tastebud command center!
- Playtime: Follow the string around to see which flavor peeks out. Every twist brings a different dish to life right before your eyes.
So, if you fancy a juicy burger, a crispy chicken pat, a sidekick of fries, or a fizzy drink, just walk along the string, twist the knobs, and let the wall paint your heart’s menu. Healthy? Fun? A bit of both – and it’s guaranteed to make you grin like you just discovered the secret menu at your favorite drive‑through. Enjoy the experience, and don’t forget: in this booth, you’re not just controlling the food – you’re orchestrating a feast!

Insta-worthy photo spots
Snap‑Good Times at the KFC Pop‑Up
Picture this: a pop‑up that’s basically a selfie playground. There are dozens of photo spots waiting for your Instagram feed—think plushies, neon backdrops, and a #OOTD challenge that’s ready to boost your likes.
Dress to Impress with Limited‑Edition KFC Merch
Strike a pose while sporting a stylish jacket or a cool bucket hat from the Amos Ananda streetwear line. It’s the kind of gear that makes you feel like a runway model without stepping onto a runway.
What’s in the Collection?
- Cut‑the‑cut jackets with eye‑catching graphics
- Bucket hats that pair perfectly with any vintage vibe
- All pieces originally released for National Day celebrations last August
Sold Out in a Snap
The collection went sold out in just one day. Our guide mentioned it sold out faster than a hot‑dog at a sports bar—so if you missed out, the pop‑up is your second chance to test‑drive the pieces.
Heads Up: Photo‑Only
Unfortunately, the outfits are treats for the camera—you won’t be able to buy them. But who needs to own them when you can flaunt them in your stories?

Win plushies and vouchers by playing games
Game On! The Chicken Quest at the Pop‑Up
Step into the pop‑up and you’ll instantly hit the highlight of the whole experience— a chance to snag your very own free chicken. That’s because the games area is packed with a foosball table, two claw machines, and a gacha (capsule toy) machine.
How to Play
- Two silver coins are handed to you right at the entrance.
- Each coin gives you one try on either the claw or the gacha machine.
- Once you’ve earned your coins, you can decide where to spend them.
Why the Gacha is a Big Deal
We’re gacha addicts, so the “claw vs. gacha” showdown was the part that had us jumping in excitement. The claw machine boasts a few cuddly plushies and some cooler prizes, while the gacha machine is a vault of vouchers for a variety of chicken treats.
Our Epic Win
At first, the claw machine left us feeling like we were stuck in a loop of disappointment. After a handful of failed attempts, we finally managed to scoop up two plushies in a single try. And the icing on the cake? We walked away with vouchers that promised free chicken—the ultimate reward for a day of fun.
